Hey guys, I just bought NCAA '09, and I want to get the real names and such, and I go to where I need to go or whatever, but then I get this message saying I don't have the capabilities to do it? Is that because I'm using a trial version of Gold? If so, that is ridiculously stupid.

I thikn u can get them off a site put it on a flash drive and save onto the game, but not 100% sure.

The gameplay, however, compared to what we have now is nothing special. Vehicle driving in Half-Life is straight out bad. The weapon selection is nothing special, other than the grav gun.

Also, it had a lot of repetitive environments, which it seems to get away with.

The storyline is good, however, it does sometimes get a little boring, and doesn't bring anything new in. There were occasions where I could just stop playing the game, and not be itching to find out what happens 20 minutes later.

I mean, Halo has better FPS elements and MUCH better driving, along with arguably better environments, however the story for HL2 is better. The weapons in a lot of games blow out HL2, because it doesn't really have a weapon that's super fun to use, other than the grav gun/saw blade combo (The line gun from Dead Space is probably one of my most satisfying guns to use at the moment, in case anyone is interested). A game like STALKER has better gameplay elements, as well as free roaming and the ability to buy and sell stuff. I could go on, but you catch my drift.

It does do a great job bringing almost everything together. But I still think that people over hype the game.

Man, I just don't have it in me.

I do think it's the greatest or second greatest (HL1) FPS ever, if you could inflate a game's greatness over time a la OPS+.

Its gotten great reviews so far, 9.5s and A's from all the reviews ive read thus far.

Good. Honestly I can't see the game getting much better but that wouldn't bother. Better graphics and new storyline is all I need. I played the first one to death. Gears is really the first game aside from Madden and the NBA 2k series that I have played a great deal of. Most of my other games even the highest rated ones I give it a play and it ends up at the bottom of my TV cabinet.

Well they added in a lot of cool new moves and tricks, such as using downed players as human shields, turrets, vehicles, deployable cover, chain saw wars etc.... but yeah their saying its living up to the expectations of a good sequel.
